Vision
Loss Can be Prevented! Loss of eye sight from cataracts
is usually preventable.

With
state-of-the-art technology, your doctor can safely
remove cataracts and allow patients to enjoy
better vision and resume the quality of life they
enjoyed before cataracts developed.

Should you consider cataract surgery? To decide whether
or not cataract surgery is right for you, a complete and
thorough eye examination is necessary. There are several
indications for cataract surgery, but rarely will a
cataract need to be removed immediately or as an
emergency. Because the procedure is elective, most
cataract surgery can be scheduled at your convenience.

Glare - difficulty
seeing in brightly lit conditions such as with oncoming
headlights, low sun angles, or on foggy/cloudy days.

Difficulty reading - or needing more
light to see print

Poor ability to perform
daily tasks - problems such as reading medication
instructions, failure to pass a driver’s visual examination,
problems seeing to play cards, bowl or play golf are common.

After consultation with your
